SD Gundam Force Emaki Musha Retsuden Bukabuka-hen (SDガンダムフォース絵巻 武者烈伝 武化舞可編) is a manga sidestory with 3 Volumes written by Masato Ichishiki, publisher by Kodansha and serialized in Comic BomBom in 2004.
Story[]
The actual story is a revival of the very first Musha Gundam storyline focusing on Ark's "Seven of Light" defenders, seven brave Musha Gundams who defend the land of Ark by order of the Shogundam. This basic story was presented in Musha Retsuden Zero, whilst Musha Retsuden was set a few years later. Just about all of the legendary defenders have fathered sons and are training them to one day assume their father's roles.
After the war against Yamikoutei (闇皇帝), Ark is ruled by evil forces. Desecendents of the Seven of Light defenders scattered across the land, in search of the Bukabuka (武化舞可) armour that can bring peace to the world. One day, when Retsumaru's family was threatened, a sword from the armour set appeared in front of Retsumaru, and so the story began.
